Take legal action against (3)

I believe the answer is:

sue

'take legal action against' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sue that I've seen before include "Plead" , "Take legal action against (someone), girl's name" , "Take court action" , "Start proceedings against (someone)" , "Apply" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Independent, The Telegraph, The Times, the Family Time and the Irish Times (Simplex).
